An apparatus and method are disclosed for filtering an audio signal. The apparatus includes an analysis filter bank, a high frequency reconstructor or parametric stereo processor, and a synthesis filter bank. The analysis filterbank receives real-valued time domain input audio samples and generates complex valued subband samples. The high frequency reconstructor or parametric stereo processor modifies at least some of the complex valued subband samples. The synthesis filter bank receives the modified complex valued subband samples and generates time domain output audio samples. The analysis filter bank comprises analysis filters that are complex exponential modulated versions of a prototype filter with an arbitrary phase shift to reduce a complexity of the filter bank.

The document relates to modulated digital filter banks, as well as to methods and systems for the design of such filter banks. In particular, the document discloses a method comprising accessing a time-domain audio signal and applying a first filter bank to the time-domain audio signal, thereby producing a first plurality of subbands of frequency-domain audio data representative of at least a part of the audio signal. The filter bank comprises an decimated modulated filter bank obtained from an asymmetric prototype filter. The method further comprises applying a second filter bank to at least a first subband of the first plurality of subbands of frequency-domain audio data, thereby producing a second plurality of subbands of frequency-domain audio data representative of at least a part of the audio signal. The second modulated filter bank comprises an asymmetric modulated filter bank which includes no decimation. The method further comprises outputting at least the second plurality of subbands of frequency domain audio data.

The document relates to modulated sub-sampled digital filter banks, as well as to methods and systems for the design of such filter banks. In particular, the present document proposes a method and apparatus for the improvement of low delay modulated digital filter banks. The method employs modulation of an asymmetric low-pass prototype filter and a new method for optimizing the coefficients of this filter. Further, a specific design for a 64 channel filter bank using a prototype filter length of 640 coefficients and a system delay of 319 samples is given. The method substantially reduces artifacts due to aliasing emerging from independent modifications of subband signals, for example when using a filter bank as a spectral equalizer. The method is preferably implemented in software, running on a standard PC or a digital signal processor (DSP), but can also be hardcoded on a custom chip. The method offers improvements for various types of digital equalizers, adaptive filters, multiband companders and spectral envelope adjusting filter banks used in high frequency reconstruction (HFR) or parametric stereo systems.
